Sorry about that, I misunderstood what you were saying. We would appear 
to be in furious agreement: only tag designated if there is signage (or 
line marking).

In Canberra there is no signage except for a hand-full of bicycle only 
paths, so I use mostly bicycle/foot=yes.

As a side thought I guess that this means bicycle=yes can't be used in 
New South Wales as you can't ride on a path unless it is marked.

Does anyone know what the situation in Queensland is? Do they bother 
putting up the signage?
